WOOLFOLK'S LAWYER.
He is at Macon Collecting Evidence to
Prove Insanity.

~~~D~~~@SJ-
MACON, GA, Aug. 29.-"Frank R.
Walker, Atlanta, CA Such was the name
written on the Brown House register last
night in bold, free aud independent style
of autograph. If the handwriting be an
index of character, here then was a plain
mirror of the now noted attorney of Thomas
Voolfolk, the alleged perpetrator and only
living actor of the terrible Bib county
tragedy which is still the horrible subject of
general discussion. Mr.. Walker arrived
from Atlanta Sunday night. He is in Macon
for the purpose OF seeing certain persons by
whom he hopes to prove that parties had
made threats against the Voolfolk family.
He will also strive to obtain evidence
that there was hereditary insanity in Wool
folks family His line of defense will be
that if Voolfolk committed the deed he was
insane at the time of the act This morning
Mr.. Walker called on Thomas Willingham,
having letter of introduction to that gem
tleman. Mr.. Willingham will in no manner
have any connection with the defense of
Voolfolk, but will take pleasure in extend
ing any courtesies possible to Mr.. Walker
while in the city. During his stay here Mr..
Walker will have a desk in Mr.. Willing
hams Office at which to do his correspond
ence. Mr.. Willingham escorted Mr. Walker
to the warehouse of C. B. & B. E. Willing
nam, WHere nc lneb OdlueT w llllnKnan, with
whom he had previous acquaintance,
Mr.. Wlllingham also introduced Mr. Walker
to a number of prominent citizens. Mr..
Walker walked about the city very ener-
getically to-day, visiting different persons
who he thinks can give him any possible
evidence beneficial to his client. He finds
that the general opinion of the Macon pub
lie is that Thomas Voolfolk is the murderer
of the Voolfolk family, and ought to be
hung In the morning Mr. Walker will
obtain buggy and go to the scene of the
murder, and will carefully view all the sur
roundings, and sift every piece of evidence
that he can possibly obtain. He will go
leisurely at work, and may spend several days
in Macon. OF course, he apprehends no
bodily danger whatever in visiting the late
home of the Woolfolks and vicinity Mr.
Walker had a secret conference today with
an elderly gentleman named Voolfolk, but
would not reveal the subject of the converse
ton. The lawyer is very adverse to being
interviewed just at present. Mr.. Walker
tried to see Judge Simmons to-day, but was
unable to do so.

Expected to Die.

SARATOGA, y. Y, Aug 29.-In the first

them were severely injured. As the ten

stretch into the regular track at the half
post, Barrett, the rider of Fountain, was
thrown, but uninjured His fall is sup
posed to have been caused by collision,
but Barrett claims not to know OF
any collision. As the remaining nine
horses were turning into the main
track near the third-quarter post, Music
stumbled, and Col Zeb Ward and Sadie
Mac came into collision with her. The three
horses went down, rolling over the jockeys.

after reported dead, but later it was be-
lieved by the physicians that there was
chance for his recovery Penny was in

Readers of the NEWS will recollect that
few weeks ago Rev. A. A Presby, of Green
Cove Springs, created a sensation by being
charged with beating his wife. His trial
has been in progress several days and to-
night the following report was received by
the presiding elder.
By The Examining Committee, II. 3. Fra
zee, Presiding Elder of the Jacksonville
District:
DEAR BRoTHER-The committee APP
pointed to investigate the rumor of immor-
atty against A. A. Presby beg leave to re-
port that after diligently seeking and pray
erfully weighing all the testimony within
our reach, we deem the evidence insufficient
to justify his suspension until Conference
and the presentment on the charge of inn
morality. The accusation of VIC
lent assault upon his wife
and cruelty to her daughter
in denying them the necessaries of life was
not sustained. We do not report upon any
question of imprudence of action or i'm
propriety of speech or spirit, as we do not
consider such report called for by the
nature of our appointment. Respectfully
submitted, T. w MOORE, Chairman,
J. B. LEY,
H. II. KENNEDY, Secretary.

Four flies were in quest of breakfast. One
found some jelly and RECALLED himself. sThe jelly
was not genuine and the fly turned upon his
back. The second fly, seeing the sad fate of his
friend, resolved to eat plain bread. But there
was so much alum in the bread that he too
turned over and breathed his last. The third
fly attacked glass of beer, but the aloes laid
him out cold. The fourth fly, seeing that every
thing eatable was tempered with, resolved to
commit suicide. He found some German fly
paper on which was inscribed Death to flies 8
He partook freely. but the more he ate the bet
ter he felt. He stuck to fly paper and lived to
